#MuellerMemos: Hope Hicks told the FBI about an incident where she received a 3am phone call from a "foreign person" with a 202 (DC) area code —

"Hicks had a hard time understanding the person but she could make out the words 'Putin call'" (pg 203)

The person on the other end of the line was Sergey Kuznetsov, an official at the Russian embassy.

After the call, he sent Hope Hicks this email with the subject line "Extremely urgent message from president putin"

The email was sent at 4:06am on 11/9/2016

Hope Hicks told the FBI that Trump was "angry, surprised, and frustrated" the day Mueller was appointed special counsel, and that she had only seen him like this on one other occasion — when the Access Hollywood tape came out during the campaign:

Hope Hicks told the FBI that Obama warned Trump to "watch out for" Michael Flynn and that the advice "sat with Trump more than she expected."

Also, "It bothered Trump that both Flynn and his son sent bad tweets." #MuellerMemos (207)

Six pages right in the middle of Hope Hicks' 1st interview with the FBI are redacted — except for this one line about Trump telling Rick Gates that he needed to "keep an eye" on Paul Manafort #MuellerMemos

Pretty damn timely bit here from this latest round of #MuellerMemos:

Hope Hicks told the FBI that Trump thought the intelligence community's assessment that the Russians had interfered in the 2016 election as his "Achilles' heel."

"Even if it had no impact on the election, Trump thought that was what people would think. He thought the assessment took away from what he did." #MuellerMemos

Lots of updates in our @BuzzFeedNews post about Round #2 of #MuellerMemos: buzzfeednews.com/article/jasonl…

Worth noting: the docs released today confirm that Omarosa Manigault Newman WAS interviewed by the special counsel as part of the Mueller investigation.

Her interview is one page and only 6 words are unredacted — "everyone on the campaign was 'ecstatic'" #MuellerMemos
